How evidence-based methods translate to online care
Aby draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide his work, focusing on approaches that help with attachment wounds and emotion regulation. One approach centers on exploring attachment patterns to understand how early relationships shape current closeness and trust. This helps people who struggle with abandonment, avoidant tendencies, or commitment worries recognize and change repeating patterns.Another common strand focuses on skills for managing strong feelings such as anxiety, shame, or anger. These practical strategies teach breathing, grounding, and thought-work to reduce overwhelm and improve daily functioning. They are useful for stress, social anxiety, and coping with life transitions.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels useful, then adapt techniques as therapy progresses. Clients and the therapist decide together which methods to try and when to adjust the plan.
